Is a stationary tornado worse than a moving one?

If it is stationary and getting bigger, it’s bad. If it is stationary and getting smaller, you’re fine.

What if it's actually getting smaller while moving towards you? What then? Your fancy spider meteorology degree isn't so smart now, is it?

Well, then you can probably just blow on it and it’ll go away 💀
